Use our medication tracker to stay on top of your health
If you take multiple medications, keeping track of them all can be a challenge. Our printable Medication Tracker is a helpful tool to bring to your next doctor’s appointment so you can review your prescriptions, understand what they treat, and stay organized.
This tracker helps you:
- List your diagnosed conditions
- Record your current medications, doses, and prescribing doctors
- Track allergies and pharmacy contact details
- Prepare questions for your care team about your prescriptions
It also includes tips for staying on schedule—like using a pillbox, setting reminders, and requesting refills early—so you don’t miss a dose.

Medication tips
Talk to your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist to understand what each medication is treating and why you are taking it.
Here are some questions you might ask:
- What is the name of the medication?
- Why am I taking it?
- When and how am I supposed to take it?
- How long am I supposed to take it?
- Should I avoid anything (food, driving, alcohol, other medications)?
- What are the side effects?
- What happens if I don’t take it or if I miss a dose?
Here are some tips to help you take your medications correctly—especially if you take several:
- Use a pill box to count out your medications a week in advance. It’s easier to see a missed dose.
- Use an alarm on your smart phone or watch to remind you when to take a dose.
- Use a daily planner to schedule your “medication appointments” to help you remember.
- Request refills of prescriptions a few days before you run out so you don’t miss any doses.
